Read the forums/wikis/mailinglist/frontpage about the pacman move-file bug and just reinstall the KDE packages you use (pacman -S kde would do).

It looks like you aborted pacman or you got filesystem corruption, your kdelibs installation misses some registration files in the pacman "database"

pacman -S kdelibs and all is fine again.
